Street photography is one of the trickiest genres of photography to do. But at the same time, it offers a lot of room for experimentation. So, it’s worth mentioning right away that you don’t need a special camera to start doing street photography. Frankly speaking, you can even shoot with your smartphone – there’s a decent amount of street photographers that shoot exclusively with a smartphone. However, you need to keep in mind that a digital camera will always give you more flexibility and produce better images than a smartphone.
Portable Network Graphics or abbreviated as PNG is a raster graphics file format. At the moment, it’s probably a second popular format for images shared on the Internet; and not without a reason. However, PNG tends to be especially wide-spread among web-designers and people who do a lot of graphics work.
PNG can handle sharp edges and lines of varied thickness, text and solid colors rather excellently. But its key advantage is that it utilizes lossless compression. This type of compression allows you to compress images without any loss of information. Thus, the original image quality will be maintained. More to that, if you compress a PNG image, thanks to lossless compression, you’ll be able to restore it back to the original without any issues. The image quality won’t change even if you have to edit and save your PNG image multiple times. The same cannot be said for compressing JPG format, for instance.
There are a number of reasons why you might want to blur faces in an image. Maybe you took a group photo and want to post it online, but a couple of people aren’t comfortable with you sharing a picture of them. In this kind of situation you have two options – not posting the photo at all or blurring those people’s faces.
